Was talking to a mate recently about how there are certain bands we feel compelled to go to see everytime there's a chance, regardless of whether they're playing the same tour (Setlist), or have a new album out or whatever.

So, who's everyone seen most, and how many times? For me:

McQueen - 7
Thunder - 7
Motorhead - 5
Dio - 4
W.A.S.P. - 4

Then obviously a whole bunch of 3s, 2s and 1s.

Tesla (5 times) (I'm not even a huge fan, but they're like my sister's favorite band, and they usually play close for fairly cheap, so I've just gone along)
Queensryche (4 times)
Seven Witches (4 times)
Edguy (3 times)

Also, it'll be my 3rd time for Maiden in March and my 3rd for Symphony X in April. Also, good chance it'll be 5th for Queensryche in February. Can't wait.

I also feel I should mention that even though I despise them, I've seen Into Eternity 4 times with a 5th on the way. They need to stop opening for bands I like.

I'd love to see Seven Witches. I hope they play Sweden Rock next year. I decided to drop all the 3s from my list, but I've see: Alice Cooper, Skid Row, Deep Purple, Saxon, Opeth, Cathedral and The Answer three times each.

I'll see Rose Hill Drive for the third time next week, and Symphony X, Alter Bridge, The Almighty and Kamelot for a third time each next year (maybe also a fourth for Kamelot). Hoping to see Thunder for the 8th time on Sunday, but not confirmed yet.

They're pretty much looked on as a local band around here. I'm not the biggest fan of them but they're very cool to see live. I'm in their DVD.

Maiden 4 times. Five this March.

They're the only band I've seen more than twice, so far. But I do plan on seeing Queensryche a third time in Februray.

Iron Maiden I've seen 5 times.

Can't say for sure that I've seen anyone else more than twice.

I'd say its a tie between Slayer and Ozzy (if you count once with Sabbath and once solo).
